Application of a New Modelling Tool for Simulating the Continuous Casting of Steel: SteelSim
An FEM (Finite Element Method) model,called SteelSim,was developed in order to study the influence of casting parameters and roll alignment on the local deformation of a slab during continuous casting of steel.The model is applied to study Liquid Core Reduction in a thin slab caster.The results presented here show that the model is capable in determining the local distribution of stresses,influenced by roll alignment,which affect the deformation of the narrow face of the slab.Eventually,the model can be utilized for determining the optimal roll configuration and casting conditions (such as: casting speed,cooling,etc.) for a given steel,in order to avoid the formation of casting defects,such as: excessive bulging,segregation,cracking etc.,which may lead to bad product quality or even to a catastrophic event such as a breakout.
